<p>Just got my acceptance to LSA and I have to say they chose a strange day (Tuesday) for acceptances but hey I am pretty dang happy right now… forgot to say that I was deferred originally 
so there’s hope for erryone especially since I was told my essay was not quite good enough but hey i’m in</p>
<p>I don’t necessarily believe @silazar, but there’s literally no way to be sure that acceptances are and aren’t happening until a ton of people speak out and say that they’re going on.</p>
<p>@pillagerguy I am sorry you do not believe me yet everyone is entitled to their own opinion. All I know is that I was accepted and if you do not wish to share in my opinion then so be it. My intention in posting was to perhaps provide some hope to those also on the deferral track and assure them that acceptances are possible even if the chance seem to stand against you. </p>
<p>Post the email @silazar as proof perhaps?</p>
<p>Word on the street is this Friday</p>
<p>I love how skeptical we all are… not just with eachother but with the release date and everything. Lets just let go and all be friends</p>
<p>I think there will be a batch either this friday or next friday. There has to be at least one before the end of Feb.</p>
<p>@potatoo I agree!</p>
<p>@dbsdude haha yeah I would if only I knew how, kinda new to the whole CC majigity, but I agree w/ potatoo,in the long run nobody’s decision is as important as your own :)</p>
<p>Another good way to check when people are being accepted is to check Twitter. </p>
<h1>victors2018 starts to pop when students are accepted</h1>
<p>Tumblr is also another good place to check. </p>
<p>True, i always check the #victors2018 trend and the UMAdmissions twitter to see if they’re RTing kids. Apart from that, I check here and believe it when multiple people hear back. Good luck people, hopefully we hear on one of these friday</p>
<p>Deferred in December, accepted on January 31, then received a Regents Scholarship (academic merit) yesterday. So confusing…not good enough early action, but good enough for a merit award!? </p>
<p>^^ That gives me some hope that deferral might not mean a whole lot if your stats are good anyway.</p>
<p>With admissions rolling does that mean only acceptances or will rejections be sprinkled in with it. If they make us wait till April just to find you werent offered admissions would really suck and thats what I am worried about.</p>
<p>Very few people get rejections. If April comes around and you haven’t been accepted it is much more likely that you will be offered a spot on the wait list. </p>
<p>Well, not quite that simple sundaypunch, UofM will accept between 30-40% of the people that apply or roughly 15,000 students to yield a freshman class of 5-6,000 (I don’t know the exact numbers from last year) They do not put 60 - 70% of applicants on the waitlist…BUT everyone will pretty much know their outcome by mid-April. </p>
<p>Ugh. I cannot wait that long. Its my first choice. They should honestly just release rejections when they decide them.</p>
<p>this is driving me insane guys. I NEED to know NOW!! gahhhhhh #frustration</p>
<p>From two years ago, “39,584 students applied for entry into U-M’s freshman class. Of those applicants, 16,073 students were admitted and 14,659 were offered a spot on the waiting list. Of the 4,498 students who accepted a spot, just 42 got in.”</p>
<p>That leaves approximately 9000 people that weren’t admitted or offered the wait list. In addition to rejections, it would also include the many people that go elsewhere andd withdraw their applications.</p>
<p>Who knows what they will do this year, but I do think it is much more likely to be offered the wait list than rejected. I’m also assuming that people posting here are at least somewhat realistic (no 3.1 GPA / 21 ACT people, etc.)</p>
<p>^^I stand corrected and surprised they need to admit so many thousands to the waitlist because historically they accept zero to less than 100 off a waitlist.</p>
